Uncle Harry's Hillbillies show up in an old Pete Pyle folio. The group
at that time was working at radio station KDAL over in Duluth, Minnesota.

While with the group. Famous Lashua penned a popular tune called "Choc'late Ice
Cream Cone" which gained popularity and was being sung by artists around
the country.

Matt Pelkonen in his regular column "Matt's Chats" would often tell readers
what songs the artists were singing on the air. And usually, it would be
a song he had a hand in writing as was the case in many of the columns of that
era. Uncle Harry's Hillbillies were doing a tune called "Little Gal, I Trusted
You Too Long", written by Josephine Friedlinger, Ben Shelhammer Jr. and Lew Mel.
So while we may not have any recordings by the group, we get some idea of the type
of tunes the group would perform from such information.

By 1947, Famous Lashua had branched out on his own; he formed a group
that was known as the Frontiersmen but was still being heard over KDAL. Country
Music, a music publisher back then out of Chicago, published a folio of his songs
and included pictures of Uncle Harry's Hillbillies as well.
